I hope everyone had a great weekend. We made the most of the wonderful weather and enjoyed a good inch-ish of rain last night.
Today on my design wall I have some cubes I've been working with. I'm toying with the idea of working with this illusion a bit more and making a wall hanging out of it. I like the way the stripes play into the cubes. We'll see where it goes! I must say that I'm very proud for teaching myself to make "Y" seams. I went into a panic when it came time to sew my diamonds together... "I don't know how to make "y" seams". I calmed down and figured it out. I'm not sure however how I'll do when it comes to sewing them all together. I may have to resort to taking them apart and doing the strip method... we'll see.
This week, while I wait on my fabric from P&B to arrive I'm going to be working on a last minute Mother's Day quilt that is going to be so sweet!
Wow, those cubes are great! I love the effect of the stripes all running different directions! Great job.
ReplyDeletevery cool Alison! Who is the Mother's Day quilt for??
ReplyDeleteThanks Beryl, The Mother's Day quilt is for a work friend of Lenora.
DeleteI have never seen the cubes with stripes, what a fabulous idea!

Thanks Jennifer and Glen, we'll see what I end up doing with it.
ReplyDeleteNo need to take them apart. Just sew them together in diagonal rows using that Y-seam technique you figured out. You can do it!
